SRVLA Year-Round Swim Program
Age-Group Development
Our Age-Group Development group represents our swimmers of tomorrow. In this group, we first emphasize teaching the proper stroke technique in freestyle, backstroke, breastroke, and butterfly. Starts, turns, finishes, and reading the pace clock are also taught.
As swimmers continue in this group, they are still perfecting their skills, stroke drills, kicking sets, and interval training. Practices are designed to help the swimmers at their different levels continue to improve and achieve their goals.
As you develop through this group, swimmers emerge that are committed to swimming smart while swimming fast. Interval training, stroke drills, and kicking sets are still emphasized. Goals are established and individual heart rate sets are monitored.
This group then progresses to the more serious swimmer who is committed to swimming smart while swimming fast. Interval training, stroke drills, am kicking sets are still emphasized. Goals are established and individual heart rate sets are monitored.
Pre-Senior Group
This group prepares age group swimmers to move up to senior level swimming. Commitment to training increases and season planning becomes more long-term. Building the foundation for a well-rounded swimmer continues, but some specialization is introduced as individual aptitudes are discovered. Athletes continue to learn more about how to train and why they train. Goal setting is emphasized more at this level.
Senior
This group experiences an elite level of training. State of the art stroke techniques are taught. Focus on heart rate, aerobic, and anaerobic cycle training is emphasized. These swimmers enter national and international competitions. They meet swimmers from all over the world. Training in this group has created Olympic level athletes. Practices are designed to help swimmers at their different levels achieve their individual goals in a group setting.
